Justin Bieber Has Compared Himself To A Certain Sexy Back Singer, But Do You Agree?

Justin Bieber has made quite the musical comeback recently, transitioning from teen heartthrob to fully fledged popstar in what seems like the blink of an eye.

But the development of his style and sound hasn't been easy, as he uses Justin Timberlake's career as a perfect example to explain how he wants to be taken seriously.

"Look at Justin Timberlake. You know, he was in NSYNC and of course they had an amazing sound but it was also, it was young. It was for teenagers," Bieber explained to Grimmy on Radio 1 recently.

"And I feel when he transitioned and started making ‘Sexy Back’ and stuff, he really found something that was unique to what he was feeling and what he wanted to do. So I think it takes time as an artist to develop your style and develop what you like and what you don’t like."
